[QUOTE="Crapspray, post: 775710, member: 58918"] Well, he's picked up bans for an elbow-drop and biting in an England shirt. It was fortune that meant the bans occured after the international window. And whilst his bans are given for club offences, they've meant he's missed both a World Cup and a Lions Tour. Not good times to lose a captain. The other problem is that he's half the player when he's trying to stay on the pitch. --- Shows how lacking in leadership we've been for the last four years when this is the outcome. Though as has been said, who else is there? Only Parling (if we're set on it not being Robshaw) comes into mind, and he plays in the most competitive position in the squad. On the bright side, it's nice that Jones wants England to have an edge. It's been sorely missed for about a decade now. I also hope this means he is bringing in new flankers. (I'm still clawing for a bright side.) [/QUOTE]
